Jason Witten might not be as good a wordsmith as he was a tight end.

“Monday Night Football” viewers roasted the Dallas Cowboys legend-turned-ESPN NFL analyst for butchering a common phrase he tried to use to describe Aaron Rodgers’ heroics in the Green Bay Packers’ comeback win over the San Francisco 49ers. Rodgers had just thrown a touchdown to cut the 49ers’ lead to one point with just over one minute remaining in the fourth quarter, when Witten exclaimed the All-Pro quarterback “pulled another rabbit out of his head!”

Pulling a rabbit out of a hat is one thing. Pulling a rabbit out of a head is something else, entirely.

Witten used Twitter to poke fun at himself shortly after the broadcast.
